Bowling!

Jonathan and I went bowling last friday for a date and had SO much fun together!

:o)

There is this nice bowling place and fun house in Naperville that I see all the time and we decided to check it out.I am not usually a bowling person. The last time I went was in college, and it was more because all my friends were going and I just "got through" it (I feel so guilty to say...) but I wanted to be with my friends!

Anywho, when Jonathan and I were brainstorming on something fun to do together - bowling had a whole new ring to it!

Needless to say, we had a blast!Hubster and Wifey battled it out on the lanes..... bowling shoes and all.And I found the lightest ball there was! I think it was a 7 pounder ..... and yes, I imagined that the bowling ball I held would probably be about the weight of my baby in 13.5 weeks ;o)

And there is my hubby, with his heavy bowling ball..... flexin' a little muscle and making a very intense face.Hubster won! But he would have had an even better score if that darn pin (which we name 'booger picker') would have just fallin' over!

That 'booger picker' was being so stubborn all night, because I should had at least 5 strikes.... A-HEM... at least.....

We laughed a lot, smiled a lot, and flirted a lot.... just a couple 'a love birds. And even enjoyed a beautiful sunset!

... And why is my mouth open so wide??.... I was just wondering the same thing myself ((?))... my cheeks look rather puffy and chipmunk-like, as if I am ready to stuff another cupcake into my cheeks for a snack later

Oh yea, and I discovered this video clip in with my bowling pictures and I remember Jonathan smirking while holding my camera and me realizing that he was probably taping..humm.. I believe it was a video he took. I will be brave and just post it with out watching first. It is kinda fun that way - and why not embarrass myself?? right? Enjoy the show

Might I add how stunning I look in leggings, white socks, and bowling shoes ((gagg)) I promise ladies, I had cuter boots on pre and post bowling ;o)love me....

Adoption is the Gospel

"[Adoption is] the whole story of redemption. The universe was meant to be a home- where the image bearers of God rule and serve under their Father. It was all to be ours. The primeval insurrection in the garden, though, turned the universe into an orphanage- the heirs were gone, done in by their appetites. A serpent now holds the cosmos in captivity, driving along the deposed rulers as his slaves. The whole universe is now an orphanage.

But then there's Jesus.

When we were still orphans, Christ became a substitute orphan for us. Though he was a son, he took on the humiliation of a slave and the horror of death (Phil. 2:6-8). Jesus walked to that far country with us, even to the depths of the hog pen that we'd made our home, and hung on a tree abandoned by his Father in our place."
